For smooth operation in industrial environments, the APEX IV has a new compact design with a smaller console. Additionally, an optional High-Throughput CombiSource™ for the first time conveniently combines electrospray ionization (ESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) in an integrated, computer-switchable ion source.

12 T magnet option for ultra-high field FTMS

This new magnet represents the highest field commercially available and is expected to be particularly important for proteomics. The active shielding allows for straight-forward placement into standard biology and pharmaceutical laboratories.
